Oxford Utd v Cambridge preview

Oxford look set to be without George Baldock when they tackle Cambridge.

The MK Dons loanee has been suffering with a thigh injury he sustained earlier this month and he is back recovering with MK Dons and may not return to the Kassam before the campaign is over.

Kemar Roofe will start in attack for the U’s after scoring twice in the 3-0 win over Tranmere last time out.

Chey Dunkley came into the side for his first appearance since January and will hope to keep his place in the starting line-up.

Ryan Donaldson will miss Cambridge’s remaining two matches this season after finally succumbing to his hamstring problems.

The midfielder had been managing a twinge in his hamstrings for several games but the injury forced him off after only 10 minutes against Mansfield last weekend. Scans have revealed a tear to one of the muscles and it will be around six weeks until Donaldson is fit again.

Goalkeeper Chris Dunn is another who will not feature again this season as he requires a wrist operation, so 21-year-old Will Norris will don the gloves for only the second time this campaign.

Liam Hughes (virus) remains out while Rory Gaffney and Luke Chadwick are still recovering from operations. Ian Miller (knee) is set to undergo surgery on Thursday.
